A Crunchy, Fresh Side for Seafood

Chef's note: Pacific Halibut Burgers can be broiled, grilled, baked, pan-fried, or air-fried. See the full array of Pacific Halibut Burger Cooking Methods for a complete list of options.

Sweet, tangy, and just a little spicy, this Honey Mustard Mango Slaw is a juicy and crunchy topping for grilled Pacific Halibut Burgers. The slaw brings together bright citrus juices, sweet mango, zesty mustard, and a kick of jalapeño — all tossed with crisp shredded lettuce and fresh cilantro for a refreshing crunch. A sprinkle of Mexican cotija cheese or feta adds a creamy, salty finish that pairs perfectly with the sweet and spicy slaw.

The slaw is a delicious complement to hearty Pacific Halibut Burgers, but it would also be a delicious side for any grilled or blackened seafood. You can also enjoy it as a topping for grilled sockeye salmon burgers.
